About FBC Killeen

We are a growing church of believers serving residents of Killeen and members of the military and their families for nearly 150 years. We would love to get to know you — here are some ways you can get to know us!

Our History

Since 1873, First Baptist Church of Killeen has been reaching out to the greater community of Killeen and Fort Hood.

Our Beliefs

We subscribe to the statements of “The Baptist Faith and Message” as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in 1963.

Our Staff

We have a dynamic group of talented individuals that keep our church operating.

Our Ministries

At FBC, our strategy is small groups. If you are not involved in a small group, you are missing out on what makes our body of believers a family. Here are some of the ways you can connect with other members. We offer LifeGroups and discipleship classes for all ages and for every chapter of your life — including a ministry specifically designed for spouses of deployed soldiers. Come grow with us!

United by the grace of God in Christian experience, the members of this church recognize and receive the Holy Bible as the inspired word of God and agree to accept it as the only rule of faith and practice. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, preexistent before the world, virgin born, sinless, crucified, risen, and coming again. We believe salvation is accomplished only by the meritorious work of Christ Jesus on the cross in our behalf. It is received as a gift from God, accepted through our faith in Christ as our Lord and Savior. We believe baptism of the believer is by immersion in water to symbolize the believer’s death to the old life and his resurrection to the new life in Christ. We believe the biblical teaching of tithes and offerings is for the development and maturing of Christians. We subscribe to the doctrinal statement of “The Baptist Faith and Message” as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in 1963. We declare our adherence to the doctrines and teachings of the New Testament and state our purpose to be:

The maintenance of the worship of God.

The study and practice of Christ’s life as revealed and taught in the New Testament.

The promotion and advancement of Christ’s Kingdom throughout the Earth in affiliation with associations as approved by the church.
